Starting in fall 2018, Lake Land College will begin offering a new hybrid version of the medical assistant program.
The new version allows students to take all their courses online and come to campus only one night a week for lab.
This will be offered in addition to the traditional two-year associate degree and the one-year certificate program.
“We think this will open up an amazing opportunity for people who can’t be in classes during the day,” medical assistant program instructor Molly Yeske said.

In keeping with its mission to provide higher educational opportunities for its students Kaskaskia College has entered into a partnership with St. John’s School of Nursing in Springfield that will enable KC nursing graduates to pursue their bachelor’s degree in nursing.

The Kaskaskia College Records Office has announced that this Thursday is the deadline for all 2018 spring graduates to apply for graduation.
KC Registrar Jenna Lammers said, “All graduation applications should be submitted as soon as possible, but no later than March 1 for students to qualify as a May graduate. Any application submitted after this date will be considered a summer graduate.”
Students must apply online through their MyKC portal.
